Education

From preschool through adulthood, Temple Beth Shalom serves as a source of learning. Our goal is for each student to gain an understanding of our religion and heritage, to foster in each child a sense of his or her own Jewish identity and to enrich Jewish family life.

The highly acclaimed preschool Mishpacha is for four- and five-year-olds and their parents to discover the joys of Jewish holidays and customs. 

Our religious school offers the foundation of a Jewish education in reading, writing, history, culture and religion. Children from six to twelve attend classes on Wednesday afternoons and Sunday mornings.

Students are prepared for their Bar and Bat Mitzvahs under the guidance of trained teachers and our Rabbi.

Young men and women who choose to study beyond their Bar and Bat Mitzvahs may continue their education in a class led by the Rabbi. This three-year program consists of education, community service and assistance in the religious school.

Even the adults have the opportunity to attend classes. As the adult education program expands, members of our congregation are offering classes of interest in areas of their expertise.
